THE POET FROM OSLOB

with poetry how can he
survive
these harsh times
when prices for gas, water
and electricity are always
on the rise?

how can he feed his two
kids and a wife with
no work?

his is not the
suffering of the thespian
whom he says
is on
pseudo-suffering
like a soap opera
or that serial on
tv every day where crying
is non-stop and
slapping is
forever

the latest from him is that
now he is in manila
applying for a construction
job in Dubai

and hence has quit
poetry for good.
